| Special Thanks: I have to
give huge thanks to Michelle, my lovely
soon to be wife and model for this
article for so much support. It was
her encouragement to build another
ride that got me going on this one.
Secondly, my paint guy Jeremy at
Smooth Custom Paint for his awesome
work and dedication on all my projects,
no way this car would be where it
is without his help and talent. All
my friends at JBOK.org and J-body.org
for all their support as well. |
